From July 27 to July 30, ChinaJoy (China International Digital Interactive Entertainment Exhibition) was held in Shanghai. When people thought that the main characters of the exhibition were game manufacturers and showgirl, this year ChinaJoy's new hardware products were piled up: alien's ThreadRipper thread ripper host, i9-7900X host from various manufacturers, Asus ROG's first Ryzen notebook, and Max-Q new products from Asus, Acer PREDATOR, Micro Star, Machinist, Xuanlong and other manufacturers were exhibited and released. And now we Love to play computer games Let's have a look at these new products.
PS： Because the content is too long, it is recommended to browse on the official website of Iooko PC version, and coordinate with the floating directory in the lower right corner to get a better reading effect (squint).
Strongest CPU support Alien Area-51 R3
Ryzen Threadripper 1950X is the strongest CPU in AMD's active service. Whether it is just one day short of release time or X399's platform name, it is clearly focused on Intel Core X series. Threadripper has 12 cores and 16 cores. The latter is 16 cores, 32 threads, and the main frequency is 3.4-4.0GHz. 1.5MB level 1 cache, 8M level 2 cache, and 32M level 3 cache, with 64 PCIe 3.0 channels, and 180W TDP.
This processor is exclusively owned by Dell's aliens in the whole machine field. Dell launched a new Alienware Area-51 R3 host on its official website on July 17, with prices ranging from $2999.99 to $5999.99 (about RMB 20200-36400). The processor itself will be sold in August, and the alien Area-51 R3 host will arrive at the end of August, which may not be as fast as buying a CPU directly. AMD also exhibited the prototype of Area-51 R3 in ChinaJoy this time. The on-site prototype is a version of 16G memory (up to 64G)+three-way RX580.
With the number of cores, AMD successfully defeated all Intel products in service and became the CPU with the strongest performance in multi-core service. There are 32 frames on the task manager, and the effect is quite impressive.
The appearance design of Area-51 R3 is the same as that of the Area-51 product line. The triangle shield is a low-key type among similar products.
In addition, aliens themselves have also participated in the exhibition. The most prominent position of their booth is the exploded model of Area-51. The interior of the fuselage is relatively simple, and there is not much "light pollution" design.
ASUS ROG Strix GL7 02ZC: 8 core Ryzen 7 1700 heater hold
At the Taipei Computer Show at the end of May, ASUS released the first model on the earth equipped with AMD Ryzen Processor Notebook ROG Strix GL702ZC , which provides The 8-core Ryzen 7 1700, 6-core Ryzen 5 1600 and 4-core Ryzen 3 1200 versions have a maximum of 32GB DDR4 memory and 512GB M.2 NVMe SSD. The video card is AMD RX 580, which supports dual mechanical hard disks. The overall thickness is 33mm and the weight is 3.1Kg.
ASUS ROG Strix GL702ZC is still a familiar mold, but the logo on the back is made of bright material, which cannot emit light, so it is relatively low-key. The handle and texture of the A-side treated by wire drawing are both good, but it is very easy to get fingerprints.
I don't know whether it is because of the test machine that a very violent power supply was given on site. Although the model is simple and huge, the maximum output is 19.5V 16.9A, a total of 330W, which is already the level of desktop computer
The test machine uses AMD Ryzen 1700 processor+32G memory+RX580 graphics card+256G SSD+1T mechanical hard disk. In addition to enjoying the fun of several frames on the laptop, ASUS runs the Ryzen 1700 with a 3.0GHz 8-core 16 thread default frequency on the body of the laptop with a 330W power supply, which is extremely low-key.

Thin beyond expectation Max-Q series ultra-thin game book
Nvidia announced the Max-Q design scheme at the Taipei Computer Exhibition at the end of May, which can insert the GTX 1080 level graphics card core into the body of only 18mm thick, so that ultra notebook notebook can have powerful graphics card performance. It is officially announced that every Max-Q notebook has NVIDIA's close cooperation, which will involve the heat dissipation and acoustic design of the notebook.
In 2017 ChinaJoy, NVIDIA exhibited a total of five MAX-Q design notebooks, of which the most famous was ASUS ROG Zephyrus, which launched the Max-Q scheme, and Acer's PREDATOR Triton 700. In addition MSI GS63VR Stealth Pro, Mechanic PX5-P1 and Xuanlongyao 9000. For details of this part, please refer to the articles before we like to play computer games Experience of Max-Q series ultra-thin game book , the following is the abbreviated version
First Max-Q ASUS ROG Zephyrus (GX501V1)
As the first part in the world Max-Q notebook, ROG Zephyrus(GX501V1) The thickness of is even thinner than the 18mm designed by Nvidia (17.9mm), and the whole weight is 2.2kg. In terms of configuration, Intel Core i7-7700HQ processor, 16GB memory, 256G, 512G and 1T SSDs are available. The graphics card is GTX 1080 with Max-Q technology (its performance is close to that of the mobile GTX 1070, and its power consumption and performance are slightly lower than that of the mobile GTX 1080). 15.6 inch 1080P screen, 120Hz refresh rate, G-SYNC support.
The most obvious thing is that the keyboard moves below the C side, and the number keyboard position becomes a touch pad. Above the keyboard is a whole piece of metal with a bright ROG logo. Irregular space bar, square island keyboard, feel that there is not much difference between key program and common notebook, it feels good. The touch control panel can be switched to the number key of touch control through the shortcut key, and the backlight will light up. Its speakers are designed on both sides of the keyboard.
The edges of the fuselage are square, and the metal fuselage has bright trim at the corner. The thickness is really impressive. There are very narrow cooling grids on both sides of the top, and the name of Zephyrus is printed in the middle. The power supply and hard disk indicators on the top can be viewed directly even if the screen is closed. This design is not only handsome, but also very practical.
The A side is bright metal wire drawing in two different directions+the logo of "Black Eye", which is quite beautiful (but It is easy to get fingerprints).
When the screen spindle rotates, it will take up a whole cover plate at the bottom to support the body to a certain height, so as to strive for valuable cooling space. The power interface is in the left center, and HDMI interface, USB, Type-C and other interfaces are also available, but not sufficient. In addition, the whole support plate at the bottom is very thin, which can be easily bent after being erected, giving a feeling of not being strong.
In order to demonstrate the heat dissipation capacity of the machine, the booth has a temperature measuring gun, and the booth is standby+occasionally large games. The temperature on both sides of the keyboard is between 42-44 degrees, and the hottest part is above the keyboard, reaching 50.8 degrees. The temperature doesn't seem too high, because the C side is made of metal, and the temperature at the keyboard is acceptable, but the 50 degrees at the top is already hot, which is a small price for the texture of metal materials and forcing.
Acer PREDATORTriton 700: 18.9mm+GTX 1080
In the overall configuration, Triton 700 uses a 15.6-inch IPS/G-SYNC screen with a resolution of 1920x1080, Intel Core i7-7700HQ processor, up to 32GB DDR4 3200 memory, GTX 1080 with Max-Q technology, and two M.2 SSD slots. estimate It was listed on the North American market in August this year, with a price of 2999 US dollars, equivalent to about 20500 yuan.
The body of Acer PREDATORTriton 700 is slightly thicker than that of ROG Zephyrus, 18.9mm. The body layout is similar to that of ROG Zephyrus. The keyboard is located in the position of the traditional notebook hand rest, and the left side above the keyboard is covered by Corning gorilla glass, so you can see the cooling fan and heat pipe below vaguely. In addition, its cooling fan is also equipped with LED lights.
When we first saw the machine, everyone was confused. Where did the touch pad go? Because the keyboard is placed below, it occupies the position of the touchpad. ASUS's solution is to give up the number key on the right and change it to a touch pad. Acer's scheme is more special. The right side of the gorilla glass above the keyboard is designed as a hidden touch pad.
The A-side and D-side of the fuselage are treated close to the skin like coating, which is quite low-key pure black. The anti fingerprint ability is slightly better than that of ROG Zephyrus. There is a large area of heat dissipation net on the back. In terms of the interface, the top of the left side of the fuselage is the lock hole, USB2.0 (concave design, factory equipped with a cover), dual USB3.0 and headphone interface. It can be seen that the internal fins are also painted in bright blue.
What's more special is that the power on key is placed on the right side of the fuselage, and the USB Type-C interface (supporting Thunderbolt 3), USB 3.0 and RJ45 network cable interface are side by side (this is not listed according to the routine). Large areas of blue coated fins can also be seen on both sides of the top of the fuselage, with a circular power interface in the middle, and DP and HDMI interfaces on the left.
Compared with the height of the interface and the author's hand, I can probably feel the thickness of the PREDATOR Triton 700. At first glance, I really think it is a super model. Only the low-key and sultry bright blue fins suggest its ferocious performance. In addition, perhaps because of the difference in materials, the body feeling temperature of PREDATOR Triton 700 is significantly lower than that of ASUS ROG Zephyrus (note, it is a lot).
Although the booth of Acer PREDATOR is not large, this time it still displayed PREDATOR 21X. Support G-sync 21 inch 21:9 2560 x 1080 curved IPS screen, i7-7820HK+up to 64G memory+GTX 1080 SLI, 1T SSD+1T mechanical hard disk.
The wide body is designed with a keyboard placed under it, and the mechanical keyboard is directly used. The touch pad is made into a magnetic fixed independent module, and the back is a digital keyboard, which can be turned over when needed.
The left is PREDATORTriton 700, and the right is PREDATOR 21X. Compared with the thickness of the keyboard, the thickness of the Max-Q game book is very touching.
MSI GS63VR Stealth Pro, Mechanic PX5-P1 and Xuanlongyao 9000
RGB keyboard is indispensable
The reputation of MSI GS63VR Stealth Pro is much smaller than the previous two Max-Q notebooks, and its performance is also weaker. The graphics card is GTX 1070 (8G) using Max-Q technology, and other configurations include Generation 7 i7+maximum 32G memory+NVMe M.2 SSD 。 The 15.6-inch laptop is available in 1080P and 4K versions. The thickness of the whole machine is only 17.7mm. The overall design is the same as that of a common laptop. It is difficult to directly judge its noble Max-Q design identity from the appearance.
Xuanlong Yao9000 is one of the most high-end products of Xuanlong now. The whole body is made of metal materials and also has an RGB keyboard. In terms of configuration, the 15.6-inch 1080P IPS screen (72% NTSC color gamut) is also a GTX 1070 using Max-Q technology, and the i7-7700HQ+8/16G memory+128/512G SSD+1T mechanical hard disk is priced at 10999 yuan and 14999 yuan respectively.
The mechanic PX5-P1 is also a Max-Q notebook equipped with GTX 1070, with the thinnest body of 18.6mm. In terms of configuration, 15.6 inch 4K screen, i7-7700HQ+8G memory+GTX 1070 Max-Q (8G)+512G SSD, keyboard with RGB equivalent.
I9-7900X goes everywhere ChinaJoy high-end MOD host
At the 2017 ChinaJoy Fair, Intel was still aggressive. It includes half of the E4 pavilion, which is the largest hardware manufacturer in the exhibition hall. Even the E4 pavilion is directly named "Intel Theme Pavilion". The huge exhibition hall is full of high-end MOD hosts using the latest Intel Core i9-7900X processor and X299 platform, making it one of the places with the highest density of i9-7900X MOD hosts on the earth. Almost all of them are advanced configurations of i9-7900X+X299 motherboard+GTX 1080Ti.
MOD host is a product that explodes the chassis and power supply of the host through various tools. The high-end MOD host has its own characteristics in design, but two things are the same: the noble price is equivalent to RGB. Now let's take a look at the i9-7900X high-end MOD hosts in the Intel pavilion at the 2017 ChinaJoy Expo. This part has also been written separately, and interested readers can stamp 《 I9-7900X Walk Around ChinaJoy High end MOD Host 》 , the following is the refined edition.
MOD host of Minglongtang aircraft carrier
Although the configuration of this aircraft carrier MOD is "just" i7-7700K+1080Ti, its appearance is the most unlike that of the main engine, and it is also very good as an ornamental model.
Viking Intelligent Manufacturing MOD
It is estimated that many readers have some impressions of this machine with a spherical box
This Virgin Smart TRON host can be deformed like a transformer, with four corners open, and then the main board inclines and leaks out (under normal conditions, the cover plates on four sides are closed, and the appearance is similar to that of common hosts).
Transformers series
This is also a MOD with a spherical chassis, but the main color is green, and the one above is converted with RGB equivalent.
The prototype of this MOD host is Lamborghini. Although there is no direct connection with the prototype, it is still handsome.
MOD based on Decepticon excavator. In this exhibition, there are quite a few MOD products with power supply on one side and motherboard on the other.
Prototype is the MOD of Decepticon bulldozer
The appearance is similar to that of a motorcycle, and even the status table of the main engine is made into the appearance of a motorcycle dashboard.
A relatively low-key micro MOD host
MOD of Autobots in Thunder Century
Yingguang MOD series
Full bare floating mirror base plate
Tube body+mirror side view
Bulldozer style, the power supply itself also has side penetration
Literary and artistic youth version with stickers
ASUS ROG "Black Eye" series
AI-MASK ROG Floathing MOD
Microsoft Xbox One X and MR mixed reality devices
Microsoft's booth this time is basically a game experience area. There is not much showgirl and hardware display. There is a wall full of user created handle works. Most game experience machines are Xbox One S fixed by Acrylic.
The national bank version of the machine was launched in December last year, with 500G and 1T hard disk versions, starting at 2399 yuan. One S is a minor change and upgrade following Xbox One. The overall volume of the body is reduced by 40%, and the long criticized external brick power supply is removed. The performance is improved. It supports 4K video output, Blu ray playback, HDR, etc. The new wireless handle also supports Bluetooth.
The black one on the left is the new console Xbox One X
Xbox One X was released at 5:00 a.m. Beijing time on June 12, The smallest Xbox in history is crammed with 8-core 2.3G AMD CPU+8G memory, GPU frequency is 1172MHz, 12G GDDR5 video memory, and bandwidth is up to 326G/s. As a comparison, the GPU frequency of the Xbox One is 853MHz, and the PS4 Pro is 911MHz. The Xbox One has 6 TeraFLOPS graphics performance, which crushes 4.2 TeraFLOPS of the PS4 Pro.
The Xbox One X is equipped with a 4K Blu ray drive, which provides HDMI1.4b input and HDMI 2.0b output, three USB 3.0 interfaces (Microsoft seems to have a low preference for Type-C), and supports AMD FreeSync and HDR10 standards. More conscientiously, it is compatible with all Xbox games. machine Starting from the 1T storage version, the price is 499 dollars (about 3400 yuan) eBay、 Both Wal Mart and GameStop can pre order in advance, but the launch time is November 7.
Dell's MR hybrid reality glasses
In addition, Microsoft also showed four MR hybrid reality devices made by different manufacturers, all of which are engineering machines. Their relationship with Microsoft's HoloLens hybrid reality helmet is somewhat similar to that of Microsoft's surface series and tablets of third-party PC manufacturers. But in fact, they are more like the low configuration HoloLens, and the appearance is that the VR glasses with two cameras are added to the front end.
Lenovo's MR hybrid reality glasses are a little shabby in appearance
Acer's MR hybrid reality glasses have a slightly better appearance design than Lenovo, but the color matching and overall design are not much better
HP's MR hybrid reality glasses are the most beautiful except Dell's, but they are larger
The MR handle made by Microsoft has design elements similar to those of HTC Vive
HP: Shadow Genie Generation 3 Plus and Shadow Genie X i9 Proud Edition
The last generation of shadow genie of HP was also released on ChinaJoy, and this year, it was a continuation of the tradition to hold a new product launch conference at the exhibition, with the main characters being Shadow Elf Generation 3 Plus and Shadow Elf X i9 Proud Edition.
In the exhibition hall, the open top sports car was changed into a triple screen "traffic jam game seat", and Shadow Genie X was used as the host.
The basic design of Shadow Genie III Plus has not changed much, but the screen size has increased to 17 inches. This IPS screen is the focus of this upgrade. It also has the 120Hz refresh rate of Shadow Genie III, 72% NTSC color gamut, supporting G-sync. In terms of configuration, it is equipped with the 7-generation Core i7, which provides GTX1060 and GTX1070 graphics cards, NVMe SSD and 70Whr battery. The heat dissipation part is stronger than the double fan 3 heat pipe of Shadow Genie III, and is designed for the double fan 5 heat pipe. It opened an appointment in JD on July 28, and the price was the same as that of the previous generation of Plus series, starting from 8999.
The i9 Proud Edition of Shadow Genie X game desktop computer is upgraded to the latest Intel core i9 processor with 18 cores and 36 threads. The motherboard platform is also upgraded to X299. Memory standard 16G DDR4@2400MHz , supports up to 32G, Intel Aoteng memory, dual 1080Ti (11G video memory) video card, 512G SSD+3T mechanical hard disk for storage, but the price is unknown. The mainframe has a side view design, and the power grid is higher.
Nvidia Pavilion and Gigabyte AORUS Game Notebook
In addition to Max-Q series notebooks, most game consoles in Nvidia's exhibition area are unified chassis.
Although the design elements are very simple, the side view is cool with linear lights
AORUS is a game brand of Gigabyte, which is nicknamed Diaopai by netizens. The most attractive thing in the exhibition area is the statue above.
Outside the game experience area, the X5 v7, our own "Powerful Release", is displayed in a low profile. The 15.6 inch 4K screen is colored by the original X-Rite Pantone and supports G-SYNC. The 7-generation i7+up to 64G DDR4 2400MHz memory+GTX 1070 (8G) has built-in ESS Sabre Hi Fi DAC audio chip.
summary
Although ChinaJoy is not a special hardware exhibition in its bloodline, this year's ChinaJoy has a wealth of new products and exhibits of game hardware. The alien ThreadRipper thread ripper host, the i9-7900X MOD host everywhere, the first Ryzen notebook of ASUS ROG, and the Max-Q new products of ASUS, Acer PREDATOR, MSI, machinist, Xuanlong and other manufacturers are very interesting, And very expensive products. If there are not too many people, it is definitely a good place to experience new hardware.
When the hall was closed, the author remembered that something seemed to be missing: ChinaJoy forgot to take a picture of her little sister!!! Then I went out and saw the giant statue below. Although it is not as famous as the first EVA machine last year, it is also a pretty shocking little sister. High energy in front, pay attention to mouse scrolling:
